Thursday night’s game between Houston and West Virginia was a wild one.
The two teams combined to score 42 points in the fourth quarter, including a touchdown by the Mountaineers that gave them a four-point lead with just 12 seconds to play. Things were looking grim for the Cougars, but thanks to a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty on West Virginia, Houston was able to get into Hail Mary range, putting the game in the hands of quarterback Donovan Smith.
On the final play of the game, Smith desperately heaved the ball toward the goal line, where it was batted around and eventually landed in the hands of Cougars wide receiver Stephon Johnson for the winning touchdown.
